Description:"04/02/1960: A time bomb, comprising six sticks of dynamite with a pocket watch timer and hidden in a rack of coats in West's Department Store, went off at approximately 3 a.m., shattering eight display windows 20 metres away, hurling a 200 kilogram counter across the store, ripping clothing, knocking items from-shelves and igniting a small fire. The damage to the store and merchandise was estimated between $4,000 and $6,000. The bomb had been left in the pocket of a coat on display before the store closed at 9:00 p.m. Friday (April 1). This action came shortly after two unexploded bombs had been found in the Kootenays, one having been placed inside a Castlegar business premise, and the other on the porch of a private residence in Nelson."
